Buzzy Beetles are found generally in caves and other dark areas. They are known to be immune to fireballs, and they can climb on walls and ceilings, and they can drop from ceilings if Mario or others approach them closely enough. As with Koopa Troopas, Buzzy Beetles hide inside their shell if Mario or others stomp on them, letting their shells be used. | Buzzy Beetles are found generally in caves and other dark areas.

'''Hammer Bros.''' (or '''Hammer Brothers''') are a type of Koopa that stand upright, wear helmets and shoes, and throw hammers at passerby. There are various similar Koopas who throw other objects at their opponents, such as the [[Boomerang Bro]]s., [[Ice Bro]]s., and the [[Fire Bro]]s., the latter of which used to spit their projectiles from their mouths, but now pull them from thin air, like the others. All of these Koopas have similar shell patterns (though they are color-coded by type: Hammer Bros. wear green armor, Fire Bros. wear red, Boomerang Bros. wear blue, Ice wear light blue, etc.) and beaks that are lighter in color than the rest of their face, both of which sets them apart from Koopa Troopas, which are also slightly smaller. | '''Hammer Bros.'''

'''Koopas''' (not to be confused with [[Koopa Troopa]]s or the Turtle Tribe in general) are a large species that is generally shown with bipedal posture, a spiked shell that is separated between the front and back, and lumpy, fleshy muzzles. As the species [[Bowser]] belongs to, many of his traits and abilities are later shown by others, such as the ability to [[Fire Breath|breathe fire]]. Most examples of them are specific named characters rather than generic enemies. They physically have the closest resemblance to [[Boom Boom]]s and [[Sumo Bro]]s. | '''Koopas''' (not to be confused with [[Koopa Troopa]]s or the Turtle Tribe in general) are a large species that is generally shown with bipedal posture, a spiked shell that is separated between the front and back, and lumpy, fleshy muzzles.

'''Koopa Troopas''' (often shortened to plain '''Koopas''' and occasionally to '''Troopas''', Japanese ノコノコ ''Nokonoko'') are common enemies in the ''Super Mario'' franchise. While some are peaceful, Koopa Troopas are usually displayed as foot soldiers of the Koopa Troop under the direct leadership of Bowser. They typically have no special offensive abilities like [[#Hammer Bros.|Hammer Bros.]] or [[#Lakitu|Lakitu]]s. Throughout the ''Super Mario'' franchise, Koopa Troopas have appeared as both quadrupedal creatures (four legged) and bipedal (walking on two legs). Since their debut in ''Super Mario Bros.'', Koopa Troopas have appeared in almost every game, usually as enemies, but also as playable characters in numerous spin-offs. They are also partners for Mario in the first two ''[[Paper Mario (series)|Paper Mario]]'' games. | '''Koopa Troopas''' (often shortened to plain '''Koopas''' and occasionally to '''Troopas''', Japanese ノコノコ ''Nokonoko'') are common enemies in the ''Super Mario'' franchise.
